G'day all, does anyone have a wiring diagram for a ARB compressor? thanks, aussiedingo

My mark 1 model is about 8 years old and is still working fine. I was assured at the time by the ARB salesperson that it does not have a thermal cutout.... "doesn't need one" ......?
Could fry and egg on it at times but it keeps on keeping on.

Try this you can save then zoom in !

Hi JD

We have one of those red compressors - red devil or something. It managed all 8 tyres in the Kimberley, but further into the trip it started overheating and cutting out, getting progressively worse - eventually to the extent of being unusable. Sounds similar to yours.

Problem not resolved as yet.

Hi JD,
I'm not sure if this will help, hope so.
I've been having a similar problem with my second hand ARB unit which seems to have a problem with one of the valve stems on my tyres, pumps the other three up without problem. When using the unit today I had the stop start, pushed the chuck hard onto the stem and held it in place, no problems in finishing the job. May have to invest in a new chuck.

Cheers,
Wayne.

JD I had the same problem with my indicators on my car, on off on off, I tracked it down to the relay also.

I removed the relay and "Viola" they now stay on all the time. LOL

The devil made me say it.
Cheers Colin.

My ARB compressor that came with my lockers got a bit lazy and after pumping for a while would slow down to a stop... I pulled the compressor unit down and refreshed all the connections and cleaned out the motor of dust etc and gave the bearings a bit of a oil and free up..... now it runs better than when it was new out of the box.
